El Born Market — Medieval Remains

Beneath the majestic 19th-century cast-iron roof, this market turned cultural centre uncovers an entire neighbourhood buried in 1714 after the siege of Barcelona. Cobbled streets, wells and charred houses make this one of the most striking urban archaeological sites in Europe.
